Carrot - Danvers Half
Long |
Sweet delicious
carrots can only be achieved by growing your own. Approximately
620 seeds/gram
Hints:
Soil should be worked 15 to 25 cm [6-8"] deep. Avoid
fresh manure which may cause forks, splits and tough hairy roots.
Sow seed at a rate of 2-3 per 2 cm about 1 cm deep. Carrot
seeds need to stay damp until sprouted. Sprouts will NOT
push through crusted soil. Harvest after carrots have a good
orange colour when flavour is best.
